In the plans it says to cut a notch in the intake manifold so the carb willbe level during flight. When the term "weld" is used to describereattaching the two parts, what did it mean in 1930? I assume it means tobraze together since it is cast iron. Am I correct in that assumption?Carol and RalphRaymond________________________________________________________________________________Date: Mon, 20 Sep 2004 22:21:37 -0700
